Sixteen well-known suppliers active in the UK pirate IPTV market have been selected by broadcaster Sky to star in a new phase of the company's ISP blocking program. A new order obtained at the High Court is technically an extension of an existing order won last year. However, with significant tweaks, upgrades and an extremely determined opponent, pirates may be about to face their toughest challenge yet.

There are alternatives, but people don't move to them, so they don't improve. I2P is a good alternative for torrent, but not many people want to move to it.

They are improve.. but slowly for sure w/ different scale and purpose, like Tor or crypto. Tbh I'm still not using I2P, because I live in country that don't have strong regulation about digital piracy. Still enjoying and exploring the vast galaxy of torrent..

But, it doesn't mean I will not use I2P. There's learning curve there to make it more secure according my own standard, but maybe next year will make it as daily usage.

Of course today's I2P development still not reach "easy to use for the masses" stage yet, but.. like Tor network, or bitcoin, it will reach there surely in the long run. Because their environment design are very promising imho than other alternatives..

Yes, there are good option than I2P w/ lil bit complexity in setup, but for "the masses" alternative.. I2P still the king I think.
